Excluding putting the car on the rack, this should take about 3 minutes with a cutting torch if they cut the studs. You may want to remove the exhaust a cat as a unit, and then focus on those three studs when you can get to them. I had to do this on my '97 when I installed my exhaust. You may need to replace the studs.
